You have the 3rd worst record in the league, so probably.Pretty embarrassing performance this year. Do we get a better draft pick now?

Nice. Hopefully we can get someone to carry me to a championship.You have the 3rd worst record in the league, so probably.
Feck's sake.
You had 4 separate small injuries, totalling 25-ish games. You're actually not tanking, the Cavs still think they're 'contending'. Well, we'll see when the new season starts.Feck's sake.
I was injured. Unless I wasn't injured, in which case, we were tanking.
Probably. You've got a 3% chance of signing a new contract though, so you just better hope you end up with a good team and not an even worse one. hobbers has 15% chance. That means there's a non-zero chance you guys just swap teams, because they both suddenly have money.Impressive. Feel like me and jobbers have been hard done by though by being too good immediately. Better to be shite and get high picks for your team.
Yeah in your face @BenitoSTARR
*sad hammer noises* I thought we were friends. I thought you’d understand what it’s like to be a tool?Yeah in your face @BenitoSTARR
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I actually really want to see them on a team together.Those four end up in one single team and I might consider retirement.
You know I actually missed that, but yeah you probably saved the title right there.Oof sounds like my buzzer beater was crucial in the finals.
That's sick, nice spotOof sounds like my buzzer beater was crucial in the finals.
Oh boy have I got news for you...Have I joined the Bulls yet
Oh boy have I got news for you...
I've got news for you as well, I'm afraid

Now that you mention it I could manipulate this to my heart's content. I could fix the draft, change all star participants, maybe even change the playoffs. So much power...@nimic we see you trying to sneak your LeBron James Atlanta team into the championship!
Lakers baby - who cares about the roster, I'm a Lakers centre.
Yep. It's not extremely impressive, but you being on it makes it a top 10 team.Have Charlotte already done the expansion draft?
What a great move from my top 3 team.
great coincidence as I'm actually a Suns fan, and I had Steve Nash in mind when creating the player04/05 Draft and Free Agency (and some trades!)
So, I just realized that quite a few trades actually take place in this game during free agency. The reason I didn't notice is that it puts those trades in the previous year, and I stop checking trades after the trade deadline. Because it's the trade deadline. The only reason I noticed this time is because... well, we'll get to that.
First, the draft! The top 12, anyway.
- Dwight Howard (57 overall) to the Portland Trailblazers
- Luol Deng (55) to the Boston Celtics
- Andre Iguodala (59) to the Indiana Pacers via the Minnesota Timberwolves
- Josh Childress (56) to the Milwaukee Bucks via the Cleveland Cavaliers
- J.R. Smith (55) to the Los Angeles Lakers
- Trevor Ariza (52) to the Los Angeles Clippers
- Josh Smith (53) to the New Orleans Hornets
- Shaun Livingston (46) to the Dallas Mavericks
- Devin Harris (54) to the Indiana Pacers via the Philadelphia 76ers
- Ben Gordon (54) to the Phoenix Suns
- Al Jefferson (43) to the Seattle Supersonics via the Washington Wizards
- Emeka Okafor (55) to the Miami Heat
Free Agency:
@The Cat has signed a new contract with the Seattle Supersonics worth $5.7M/yr through 2008. The Cat knows a good thing when he sees it.
@Stobzilla has re-signed with the Memphis Grizzlies for $3.78M/yr through 2008.
@altodevil has signed with the Los Angeles Lakers for $14.26M/yr through 2009. It's not Seattle, but they do spend a lot on coaching and physios.
@hobbers has decided he wants to try something new, and so has chosen the newest thing around and signed for the Charlotte Bobcats for $14.44M/yr through 2009.
Trade News (only big trades involving you or your teams)
It seems like the Miami Heat are actually going for it. @oneniltothearsenal can decide for himself whether this seems worth it.
This marks the first time the 76ers have been Cafite-less since we started this thing. I guess they're tanking, but was it really worth it getting rid of a young, good and not very highly paid @reelworld? Their loss is his... gain? Time will tell.
A clear statement of intent from the Nets, getting rid of older or worse players, plus some draft picks, to acquire @sebsheep.
Now that's surprising! @weetee just won his second title with the Supersonics, and they decide to turn him into 3 other players (and a worthless draft pick). I guess they might have started regretting handing him that massive contract, though it did lead to a couple of championships.
Awesome!great coincidence as I'm actually a Suns fan, and I had Steve Nash in mind when creating the player
feck yeah
